huge fustercluck commit because there wasn't really a way to separate out the changes. better to just rip it all out at once.
* compositor and window management completely rewritten. this was the goal for E19, but it pretty much required everything existing to be scrapped since it wasn't optimized, streamlined, or sensible. now instead of having the compositor strapped to the window manager like an outboard motor, it's housed more like an automobile engine.
** various comp structs have been merged into other places (eg. E_Comp_Zone is now just part of E_Zone where applicable), leading to a large deduplication of attributes
** awful E_Comp_Win is totally dead, having been replaced with e_comp_object smart objects which work just like normal canvas objects
** protocol-specific window management and compositor functionality is now kept exclusively in backend files
** e_pixmap api provides generic client finding and rendering api
** screen/xinerama screens are now provided directly by compositor on startup and re-set on change
** e_comp_render_update finally replaced with eina_tiler
** wayland compositor no longer creates X windows
** compositor e_layout removed entirely
* e_container is gone. this was made unnecessary in E18, but I kept it to avoid having too much code churn in one release. its sole purpose was to catch some events and handle window stacking, both of which are now just done by the compositor infra
* e_manager is just for screensaver and keybind stuff now, possibly remove later?
* e_border is gone along with a lot of its api. e_client has replaced it, and e_client has been rewritten completely; some parts may be similar, but the design now relies upon having a functional compositor
** window configuration/focus functions are all removed. all windows are now managed solely with evas_object_X functions on the "frame" member of a client, just as any other canvas object can be managed.
*** do NOT set interceptors on a client's comp_object. seriously.
* startup order rewritten: compositor now starts much earlier, other things just use attrs and members of the compositor
* ecore_x_pointer_xy_get usage replaced with ecore_evas_pointer_xy_get
* e_popup is totally gone, existing usage replaced by e_comp_object_util_add where applicable, otherwise just placed normally on the canvas
* deskmirror is (more) broken for now
* illume is totally fucked
* Ecore_X_Window replaced with Ecore_Window in most cases
* edge binding XWindows replaced with regular canvas objects
* some E_Win functionality has changed such that delete callbacks are now correctly called in ALL cases. various dialogs have been updated to not crash as a result

Subject: [E-devel] [PATCH] battery: add support for different suspend
methods
Allow the user to select what to do when the battery runs low:
Suspend, Hibernate or Shutdown.
SVN revision: 69623
Just some groups and basic description for modules. I'm NOT going back
to this anytime soon, but would be VERY happy if people could do some
screenshots and put the images for each module in docs/img/ folder,
linking to them from each e_mod_main.h

* Remove vim modelines:
find . -name '*.[chx]' -exec sed -i '/\/\*$/ {N;N;/ \* vim:ts/d}' \{\} \;
find . -name '*.[chx]' -exec sed -i '/\/[\*\/] *vim:/d' \{\} \;
* Remove leading blank lines:
find . -name '*.[cxh]' -exec sed -i '/./,$!d'
If you use vim, use this in your .vimrc:

I have added what I call "fuzzy mode", which (in udev mode only) averages the past 10 polling times to give a somewhat more readable measurement.
bugs: none that I know of?
todo: make fuzzy mode average the previous 10 times without resetting except on state change, fix "fuzzy mode" checkbox to only enable when udev is selected

killing hald and seeing if fallback to batget works. :) at least if hal is
runing and already monitoring power/battery and polling - e will just flow
along with it. pre-hal batget still is there.
SVN revision: 37646
to read like tempget. this means e cant hang hen polling - much better for
the mainloop. also clean up the code a lot. all battery specific "driver"
code is now in batget - this means it much nicer to later add hal battery
info fetching as that is also a remote service (and just not execute batget).
i also fixed up (in theory) the new 2.6.24+ /sys/class/power_supply parsing
to i think work better in more situations. i'm testing on a device i have
that does it - let me know if its wrong...
SVN revision: 33903
1. configure/build changes to allow cross-compiling painlessly
2. pager module namespace changes - this was still dirty afdter the namespace
cleanup, so clean it up
3. add a powersave subsystem - doesnt have an "automatic" way to turn on and
off right now, this i think is best provided by modules (that do things like
monitor acpi status's (eg close lid of laptop), AC power status etc. etc.
this allows e to nicely defer "power" expensive actions to avoid disk
spinups etc.
4. move to use the new ecore poller system - discussed long ago as part of
power management/saving issues. now it exists
5. add a canvas idle flush call that helsp cope with the new shm greedy
software x11 engine stuff
6. use the new powersave subsystem where appropriate
7. fix non-zeroed/initted memory access in e_fm_main
8. fix mem leak for e menus
9. remove ipc handlers for changed/removed config values
10. use animaotr not timer for menu scrolls - then menu scrolls obey the fps
config
11. fix up timer/poll happienss of cursor idle stuff
12. remove avoid damage from popups for now - causing problems
13. change battery and temp readouts to b e shorter so they fit
14. pager can emit signals on focus change for mini-windows now
15. temperature module now uses a slave process and uses stdin/out to talk to
it and get output - this makes e smoother as in my expereicne i found getting
the temp on my laptop actually took like 200ms so e "hang" for 200ms while
reading the acpi files - so now the subprocess does it and just writesa back
to e when it gets it.
ecore:
1. add ecore_pollers. see the documentation on them in doxygen comments :)
2. fix timers to only go off when they have to - bug there that made e's
select time out a LOT more than it needed to. defensive coding hid the
problem. now fixed. e should be much more power friendly now.
3. formatting/niceness in ecore_exe stuff
4. some comments on comments with SIGIO ideas vs. select
5. add call to be able to add an idle enterer at the start of the list of
them, not just the end (as has been the default)
6. fix ecore_evas to support auto evas idler calls after 0.5 secs of idle in
all canvases - and to do it right
7. if argb destination - set the shape EVENT shape (to mask out events in
transparent regions much like shape does withotu translucency)
8. in ecore_x add support for the event shape
evas:
1. fix cache to work properly and not just always fill up (as it seemed to
like to think cahce useage dropped below 0 when it didnt and thus just
over-fill)
2. software x11 engine now ONLY uses shm segments - no ximages over the
socket. this ximage hack was there to avoid the 2 round trips involved in
setting up an shm image - now i mitigated that wih an shm image cache pool.
it keeps shm images around and repurposes them for new update regions if
appropriate. this means many fewer shm creates (about 1/100th the number) and
since we recycle the memory less 0 memory page filling by the kernel - in the
end, i recorded about a 10-20% speedup over the old software x11 engine.
simple tests i have seen up to 120% speedups. idle flush now does something -
it frees all the cached shm segments. it has a hard-coded limit of 4mb worth
of shm segments (or 32 segments - whichever comes first) to keep around. once
can never complain much about speedups methinks :). also evas will defer sync
until the NEXT frame is written - this means evas can calculate the next
frame of data while x dma's/copies the images to the screen at the same time
(if you hve a dual core or multi-cpu machnike or your xserver is able to use
DMA to copy image data to the screen/video ram then this should see a decent
speedup).

lend me your ears, for i come to break code, not to praise it!
module api getting kicked about. 1. modapi calls for config and about are gone
core module api call for about dialog gone (not needed anymore). use module
.desktops for about info in description. config should go via the config
panel calls to register stuff.... wherd... to... ma homieoes!
SVN revision: 32231
1. cleaned up actions for restart and exit
2. made main menu cleaner in just using the actions
3. added ilits unselect calls for ilist smart and widget
4. patch for cpufreq to set all cpu clocks
5. fix battery module to handle broken acpi impl's that don't report drain rate
6. add e_sys subsystem - for executing system sensitive stuff like halt, reboot
suspend, hibernate etc. this also covers exit, restart and logout. logout
is currently dormant and just an action - not bound or in a menu. not
complete anyway (no code for it). halt and reboot should probably use
logout logic to shut down apps - i will recycle it. i added a suid root
binary to do the actions - uses a system config (default one supplied that
is secure - root will need to modify it to allow things).
7. fixed suid install hook for cpufreq
8. added sysconf dir to build for sys config file.
9. pants on
SVN revision: 25395
module.eap files being installed - and using the e_apps api to load them and
ask for a name. Also icon is expected to be in this file too and i have
removed the info func call from modules as well as config_menu, module menus,
and other cruft in moduel structs. this also means revving the module api
version and saving users from a "if i recompile it will work" thing. :)
moduels need serious updates, not just a recompile for this. your modules
WILL break.
SVN revision: 23045
it's built as an arch specific package and it is intrinsically required by e
and cannot work without it nor is the data shared betwene e and other apps
unless e itself is installed too
SVN revision: 22260
1. "allow overlap" patch for modules - needs better names in the gui (Allow
windows to overlap maybe - as allow overlap is very vague)
2. itray module (buggy - buggy - beware. i know why. beware i said!)
3. TODO items
